Farewell to an Icon

By Pastor David Bauser

The parking lot cross has been a fixture at Lord of Life for decades. Unfortunately, in recent years, the cross has started to bend to one side. It was also recently discovered that the base of the cross has deteriorated and rotted to the point that it is becoming a hazard.

The Lord of Life Property and Technology Committee has decided to remove the cross in order to ensure the safety of everyone. Lord of Life volunteers will be removing the cross on May 1. At this time, there are no immediate plans to replace the cross. We will discern the future of this beautiful space and what should take the cross’s place during the coming weeks and months.

We know that for many of you the cross has been an important part of your time at Lord of Life. If you have stories or memories of the cross that you would like to share, feel free to contact the pastors or members of the Property and Technology Committee. We look forward to hearing from you and sharing with you the new vision that will be grown in the coming months. Thank you for your time and understanding.
